An initial encounter turned into a chase.
Under the relentless pursuit of the undead army, the battle lasted from late at night until the afternoon of the next day, turning the entire mountain forest into a blood-red mess.
You have obtained 157,000 Soul Crystals and 83,000 Death Essence.
Glancing at the corpses scattered on the ground, Jiang Yan took out a golden token. He planned to activate Necromancer Domination after advancing in rank, so that he could save some Soul Crystals.
"breakthrough."
Just like the previous two times, the golden advancement token transformed into pure energy that flowed into his body. The trickling stream of magic power grew stronger and stronger, turning into a mighty river that surged and roared endlessly.
Feeling the surge in magical power, Jiang Yan unleashed the Heavenly Calamity.
Necromancer Domination!
Under the immense power of the Law of Death, the corpses of over 80,000 mountain apes suddenly opened their blood-red eyes and stiffly rose from the ground.
They casually picked up the scattered limbs and put them back on their bodies, then silently gathered behind Jiang Yan and Xina.
In just one night, the number of undead troops once again exceeded 100,000.
Jiang Yan was secretly alarmed when he thought about what would happen once he arrived on the mainland.
It's important to understand that the mainland is quite different from these monster-infested nooks and crannies.
There, powerful empires stand side by side, constantly at war with each other and threatened by the abyss, yet the living environment is stable, the population is countless, and there are a large number of ordinary people with low combat power.
If a powerful undead warrior is determined, he can even raise an army of a million in a single day.
I just hope these forces will be sensible and not reject the Holy Light's goodwill.
Otherwise, he would be forced to meet them as the Undead Emperor.
As he pondered, the surging source of magic within him gradually stabilized, and a timely notification from the various realms arrived:
You have successfully advanced to Gold Tier 1, gaining the Lord Skill "Military Command" and the Class Skill "Seeds of Harvest".
Skill acquisition is random. Depending on the progress and identity, the lord skills Jiang Yan obtained were different from those in his previous life. He closed his eyes with some curiosity to feel them carefully.
Lord Skill - Military Order: Force your subordinates to sign a military order in a reasonable way. During this period, all abilities are increased by 20% until the mission is completed. If the mission fails, the other party will be subject to an unacceptable punishment, which the lord can cancel by spending an additional 100,000 Soul Crystals.
Military orders are absolute; those who disobey will be punished!
That's quite interesting.
Jiang Yan hesitated for a moment, then secretly glanced at Xina, who was resting to the side. Should he give it a try? After all, the punishment could be canceled.
Mobilize forces now, and launch military action!
Punishment set: Go to Holy City and publicly admit that you are inferior to the Seraphim Annalia.
Almost simultaneously, Hina, who was resting against a tree, suddenly opened her eyes and happened to see Jiang Yan turning his head with an unnatural expression out of the corner of her eye.
Um?
Why does Your Majesty look at me like that? Does he think I'm being too lazy?
Yes, those birdmen supposedly helped the Emperor consolidate the faith of the duchy in just 17 days, while I haven't even conquered half of the passage to Misty Valley.
Damn it, how did I manage to close my eyes!
We absolutely cannot let those guys outdo us!
A strange thought arose in Sheena's mind. She walked straight to Jiang Yan and knelt down on one knee.
"Your Majesty, please believe me. I swear I will open up the entire valley within half a month. If I fail, I am willing to accept any punishment!"
"Uh...of course I believe you."
Seeing Xina's unusually serious expression, Jiang Yan felt a little embarrassed. He hadn't expected the skill to take effect so quickly, so he simply went along with it and said, "Then I'll leave everything to you. Any unused flesh and corpses can be transported back through the teleportation array. I'll provide you with support."
As he spoke, he slightly raised his hand and handed a black fragment to Sheena.
This is a professional skill he acquired, which allows him to split off seeds of harvest for others, and collect the essence of death even when he is not present.
This greatly speeds up the process, and we're not far from summoning the second Heroic Spirit from the Necropolis!
"Yes, I will depart immediately."
Sheena took the fragments, carefully placed them away, and immediately rallied the army to continue the advance.
Jiang Yan did not go with them this time.
He still has many things to deal with, including dealing with a huge sum of over 20 million units of faith power that he possesses.
They also had to recruit the skeletons produced daily from the graveyard and supervise the dwarves to prevent them from slacking off.
Jiang Yan sighed, offered a few words of encouragement to the spirit array masters who were working hard, and then returned to Holy Spirit City on the Yaberic train he had summoned in advance.
Two hours later, at the gates of heaven.
Jiang Yan originally intended to save up this large sum of faith until it reached 100 million before leveling up, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
After all, just 4,000 angels who have reached the point of blind faith can provide him with more than 100,000 faiths every day.
"Recruit 4,000 two-winged angels and 8 four-winged angels."
Under Jiang Yan's heartbroken gaze, the Gate of Angels erupted with unprecedented brilliance, and countless orbs of light flew out from the gate, lining up neatly above Holy Spirit City.
The intense holy power even slightly stirred the deathly aura that lingered in the undead region, causing the scattered limbs and bones on the ground to quietly bury themselves deeper underground as if they had come to life.
"Holy Lord, thank you for giving us new life."
A clear and orderly sound came from above, and more than 4,000 angels, lined up in neat rows, gently landed in front of Jiang Yan.
The vast majority are war angels, with the remainder consisting of 54 healing angels, 200 divine magic angels, and 12 preaching angels.
Of the eight four-winged angels, six were dressed similarly to war angels, while the other two were particularly distinctive, each holding a white quill pen in one hand and a blank book in the other.
At the same time, they are also much taller than the two-winged angels, about 1.6 meters tall.
Considering Anna's height of 1.7 meters, it seems that the class classification of angels is not only related to wings, but also to height.
"That's quite an interesting discovery," Jiang Yan said with a chuckle as he looked up.
Four-winged Angel
Rank: Unique.
Occupation: Four-winged Legacy Angel.
Level: 30.
Faith Level: Blind.
Specialized skills: Light-effect holy light spells, Book of Time.
Overall score: 8000.
Note: They are the recorders and beautifiers of the Lord's actions.
What kind of breed is this? Jiang Yan's expression was somewhat strange.
As for the other six, they are more normal. They are commanding angels, skilled in large-scale battle formations and group buff spells, and their rating is about ten times that of the two-winged angels.
"What do you usually do?" Jiang Yan asked curiously.
"Holy Lord, our main purpose is to record and embellish your words and deeds at special moments, so as to avoid any unnecessary blemishes on your glorious deeds," the two angels said excitedly.
"Special moment?"
"Yes, when it's time to record, our passive ability will naturally take effect and write the appropriate record in the annals of holy light."
"For example, if you participate in a competition but withdraw or fail to win for some reason, our ability will activate and leave a record of your victory in history. After that, the skill effect will take effect in a very short time, and everyone will clearly remember that you are the champion. Even if a powerful god could only travel back in time, he would not be able to discover the truth."
Another angel of inheritance added:
"But this ability is related to the strength of faith. The stronger the faith, the higher the level of effectiveness. At present, the highest level it can achieve is to tamper with the memories of demigods."
Interesting, no wonder it's called a history book of time.
Jiang Yan chuckled, just as he was about to arrange for them to go to Misty Valley to level up, when a notification from various realms rang in his ears:
[Due to the descent of numerous angels, the Gates of Heaven have been freed from a small portion of their oppression ahead of schedule. You can now recruit a new six-winged angel to descend.]
